Seriously? OMG! WTF?

CBS announced today that MacGyver will not be back for a 6th season. Instead, its season finale on April 30th will now serve as its series one.

“All of us at CBS are extremely grateful for the incredible work and dedication from Lucas [Till] and the rest of the cast, as well as Monica [Macer], the writers and the entire crew,” said Kelly Kahl, President, CBS Entertainment. “The MacGyver team traveled far and wide to repeatedly save the world with little more than bubble gum and a paper clip and made this show distinctly their own. We’re gratified we get to give this dedicated and loyal fan base the opportunity to say goodbye to their favorite characters in the thoughtful manner this series deserves.”

Is the news a surprise? Nope, the fact that it lasted this long is. It never caught on, and its ratings have never been good.

I guess CBS is saying out with the reboots and in with CSI.

Are you going to miss it?

Before George Eads was living in Sin City on CSI, he was committing sins in Savannah. He looks the same now as he did when he was 29 in that 1996 series.

Heather Graham is 51, but you would never know it looking at her in a bikini as she walked this dock like it was a runway. She could sashay down a real runway with supermodels half her age and all eyes would be on her. Don’t you agree?

On March 23rd, George Segal passed away due to complications from bypass surgery. Before he died, he shot three episodes of The Goldbergs that were yet to air. Tonight at 8p, his final episode airs on ABC. After the episode is over, the producers, the network, and the studio put together a 45-second tribute to the show’s patriarch.

While we will be saying goodbye to Segal tonight, his character Pops’ death will not be addressed this season. Wendi McLendon-Covey, who plays his daughter on the sitcom, told a Twitter user, “And no, we would NEVER replace George in the role of Pops. If we get a season 9, we will address it then. #TheGoldbergs”

It is better they wait to give him and his character the sendoff he deserves and not rush one out. Even more importantly, ABC needs to pick up the show for a ninth season.

UPDATE: The show’s creator Adam F. Goldberg weighed in on how his show should handle his grandfather’s death.

“Tonight is George’s last episode. Fans are asking what’s planned for Pops,” Goldberg wrote. ”
“Even though my input and stories have not been used this season, I know the way to address this loss is to use my real experience of losing my Grandpa to honor George and my Pops. Hope I’m welcome S9! #JTP”

If they don’t have him work on that episode, then the sitcom does not deserve a 9th season. Let’s be honest, it hasn’t been as enjoyable without him.

Back in September, Gimme a Break’s Lauri Hendler took part in the clinical trials for the COVID-19 vaccine. Yesterday, she posted a photo of herself because they asked to come back for another shot.

“Number three,” the actress wrote. “Now I’m testing out a booster shot that may or may not be adjusted for one of the #covid19 #variants.”

I am not surprised that they are doing more studies. I expect that we are going to have to get a shot every year like the flu shot. That is fine, as long as it protects us from coronavirus.

When it comes to the shot, I got the Pfizer one on Easter. Besides some chills and arm soreness, it wasn’t that bad. In fact, I had fewer side effects with it than I did with this year’s flu shot. Therefore, you should get it. Please, get it.

When it comes to Hendler, thank you for sharing this information with us, and even bigger thanks for taking part in this study.

One last note, can we talk about how gorgeous she looks! She gets better with age.
